One Piece and the Pillory

The Straw Hat crew is already assembled and searching for adventures so that Luffy can become the Pirate King! This has been his dream since childhood, and he strives for it no matter what. The entire crew—Luffy, Zoro, Nami, Sanji, Franky, Brook, Usopp, Robin, and Chopper—were on the ship, tending to various tasks as they sailed toward the next island to replenish supplies and, most likely, find some adventure. After their previous escapade, the ship's railings were slightly damaged, and because of that, Franky is currently repairing them, while Brook sits on those very railings playing the violin and getting in his way. Chopper was walking across the deck, hauling crates of medicine flasks; since it was difficult for the little reindeer, Robin began to help him. Nami stood at the helm, carefully monitoring the ship's path to the island. Some commotion was coming from the kitchen, where Zoro and Sanji were arguing over some triviality. And Luffy was sleeping soundly in his cabin. When they arrived and stepped ashore, Zoro got lost... They began searching for him, but then they spotted a Marine base nearby. The pirates knew they shouldn't go there, otherwise they would be arrested, or worse, killed. However, Luffy climbed to the top of the wall, peering into the large courtyard, and saw none other than Zoro... In the fresh open air, Zoro stood on a pillory, his arms and waist bound by ropes. Zoro had been caught after all; he probably fell asleep somewhere and the Marines found him. Due to the heat, Zoro had lowered his head and closed his eyes. It was almost exactly like their first meeting with Luffy... But this time, he would definitely be saved. After 5 minutes, some Marines approached Zoro and struck him several times. He only clenched his jaw and let out quiet groans of palpable pain, but knowing his status, he endured it like a stone. Only this escaped Zoro's lips:
Zoro: "Scum..." — To which the Marines laughed and left, leaving Zoro standing there. Raising his head, he saw his crew and was even slightly glad, though he didn't show it... What a cold Nakama!? But that was already expected. At this, Luffy smiled, meeting his friend's gaze.
